While executive functions are crucial in controlling primal urges, some of which arguably trigger uncooperative behavior in group settings and blind them from competing perspectives, I really dislike this buzzwordification of something that isn't surprising nor new. The whole principle of Diamond's education method seems to be teaching kids how to inhibit their urges, or "think before your act" (I'm sure there's an elegant quote/prophrase for this in English. Anyone know?). Big deal. I bet you can achieve similar results or even better via dialectics a la Plato. Once they have the patience, teach them and all their best friends Go/chess.
